• If it's a top that has cleavage showing please put a camisole on underneath. 
• Heels should be appropriate for the office you're interviewing for, not a pair of stilettos. 

DO:

• Get advice from people who are currently working in the field you're interviewing for on how to dress.
• Be classy without being matronly. 
• Spend the money you need in order to look good, it will pay off.
